Unigine Valley 1.0 Benchmark Thread

[rdc85]

It strange your score are lower thant mine....

could u try diffrent O.C setting....

When I tried Heaven 4.0 with mem at 1300 it give me score about ~730
when i push the mem to 1400 (stable) the score drop to ~700
it could be the same thing happen....

 

[dudewitbow]

score wise, its performing probably at the level of like a 7770 or a 650ti. somethings very off about his score. are you running 13.1 wqhl or 13.2 beta

I don't think its a CPU bottleneck, especially because we're dealing with benchmarks that are mostly single-threaded and only use (in my case) about 25% of the CPU.

Something is at play here. Nitrium, can you run GPU-Z and click on the PCIe button and verify that you are running at least PCIe x8/x16?

Your score is about 60% of what it should be.

Earlier today I would run the bench and only get about 37FPS and it was having the iGPU in Multi-Monitor mode in BIOS that was holding me back but Lynnfield doesn't have an iGPU so that can't be the case unless your mobo has integrated graphics. What is the make and model of your mobo?

 

[nitrium]

I just ran 3DMark (the new one). This also shows the mobo/RAM etc. The CPU processor clock is obviously wrong - it's 3.4 GHz.

That seems ok to me from other scores I've seen.

 

[stickg1]

IDK I think that's closer to normal. I'm not too familiar with how the new 3Dmark scales though. This is one of my 7970's

And this was with a 7970/7950 CF-X

I'm not OCing my GPU, BTW. It is all stock (it's a Sapphire Vapor-X).

 

[FlintIronStagg]

CPU won't show overclock on 3dmark
it has very little to do with unigine... It is a gpu bench.

still the lowest score i've seen for a 7950 is 34.4 - 1438 @900 core clock

Yeah I had one of those. Click the button on the side of the GPU to turn the boost BIOS off (the blue LED should no longer be lit up, you will have to reboot for it to take effect). I had trouble with the boost BIOS. Then manually clock it to the BOOST values. Should be 950/1375 @ 1.175v, power slider +20%. Then click that "?" mark on GPU-Z and it will run a little test to put the GPU under stress and it will tell you if it is working at x16.

the 285 isn't dx11.. im sure your card would perform better if it were compatible

Yea, this benchie took a dump on my gpu!!! :lol:

I was wondering why the score was like half of mines. IRL i was like, there's no way a 285 would be THAT low. then after^^ post came, it all made sense.

Ill be upgrading soon

 

[FlintIronStagg]

Why I went sli, no more dumps on my system. This benchmark runs extremely well tbh as opposed to some on a good card. A new gpu, even mid ranged will run alot better. A little over 200 bux can get a good mid ranged card that can run this bench well, as well as all the latest dx11 titles.

 

[zpwslayer]

What kind of gpu's did you go with Flint?

 

[FlintIronStagg]

Check my bench my specs are in there, any more questions we can take it to pm so we don't stray off topic too much

I followed those instructions, except I set power slider to +10% - maxing it out seemed kinda wrong to me.

nitrium - i5 760 @ 3.4GHz - HD7950 @ 950/1375 - 32.8 - 1374

WOW! Thanks very much for the tip!

 

[FlintIronStagg]

Better, but still should be more like 1900

 

[stickg1]

The boost BIOS puts the power slider to 20% by default so there is no problem running it that way. Glad you're back on track!

 

[dudewitbow]

that looks about right now, its around rc's 7870(which is overclocked) so I think its normalized by now.

beat me by a point will you?!? :lol:

i certainly hope you won't let this big mouthed green team fan run his mouth that GTX 570 > HD7950 now will you [:rayner428]

(jk, its all in good fun)

Datz gr8 a 200mhz oc on that fermi,especially the shader clock turning the tides for you and I was about to forget the remarkable oc scaling of fermi cards. 😛
Here's wat my 660 ti power edition is posting

Pfffft. I have had a Riva 128, a Riva TNT, a Riva TNT2, a Geforce, a Geforce 2, a Geforce 4200Ti, a 6600GT, a 8800GTS, and a GTX260. Can you say the same, so called "Green Team"? The HD7950 is the first ATI board I ever owned, and frankly I've never been happier with my purchase.
